I am now an egghead!
I set up a Twitter account. Follow me @englishamy70. Of course I found Dr. Jerles without any problems. I even tweeted him. We shall see if I did it correctly. I also found some of my favorite singers and television shows. I even found the money man, Dave Ramsey.
I will use this to keep in touch with what is going on in the world around me. School bogs me down and I often miss the evening news and/or reading the Leaf Chronicle each morning. I can have up-to-the-minute Tweets that keep me up on what is going on in our community. I would feel comfortable following students and having them follow me on Twitter. This might be a fun way to answer questions on homework, since I have my iPhone on my all the time. When you are a teacher, you are out there in the public spotlight. One might as well jump on the Twitter bandwagon and put it to some good use.
